When it comes to improving your health and reaching your fitness goals, there is a lot of what we as coaches call "noise".

Noise refers to "health" products and services promised to help us reach our goals but turn out to be nothing more than good marketing.

These are things like fad diets, detoxes and the latest workout gadget sold on TV.

They do little more than burn a hole in our pocket.

Today, I am going to cover one of the best and more simple ways to drastically improve your health, save time & money and burn fat.

That is, to improve your grocery shopping with our 5 simple tips!

Enjoy :)

Plan ahead

The first step in your grocery shopping adventure is to go in with a game plan.

Start with a list.

This will keep you buying healthier items and items you need.

Remember, the grocery store's job is to get you to buy more. They strategically place items in certain areas and discount certain items to get you to buy. These foods are almost always unhealthy and should stay at the store.

Start your grocery list with planning your meals for the week.

Here are some questions to consider:

How many and what meals will you be cooking this week?

How many days will be between today's and your next grocery shop?

How many people will you be cooking for?

What recipes would you like to try this week?

When will you be cooking? (This is important for keeping food, especially produce, fish and meat fresh and not having to throw it out)

Once you have your list, head to the store and stick to it!

Eat before you shop

Have you ever gone to the grocery store hungry?

This was most likely bad news for your wallet.

Research has shown that people will buy up to 64% more food when hungry compared to those who weren't.

Not only will shopping when hungry increase how much food you buy, it will also significantly increase your likelihood of buying unhealthy, fattening foods.

What to eat before your next shopping trip?

Before heading out to the store be sure to have eaten a meal or snack depending on the time of day.

Your meal should be an appropriate size of healthy fats, vegetables, and protein.
